Why OP Vet Physio?
Care
I understand the special bond between you and your animal, which is why I treat every pet or horse as if they were my own. My personalised treatment plans are designed to address their specific needs and promote long-term health.
Compassion
I approach every case with empathy, ensuring that both you and your animal feel comfortable and supported throughout the healing process. Whether it’s post-surgery recovery or injury prevention, I strive to create a calming environment for your animal’s treatment.
Commitment
I’m fully committed to achieving the best possible outcomes for your animal’s health. Using a range of specialised therapies and techniques, I work tirelessly to restore mobility, reduce pain, and improve strength—helping your horse or dog live their best life.
About Olivia
I’ve been a dedicated veterinary physiotherapist for over seven years, driven by a passion for helping animals recover, thrive, and reach their full potential.
After graduating in 2017, I spent two invaluable years working in the UK, where I gained international experience and refined my skills.
Today, I apply that expertise here in South Africa, working with incredible clients and their animals every day.
As a competitive show jumper, I understand the unique demands placed on performance animals. I bring that insight into every treatment plan—whether it's restoring mobility, managing injuries, or enhancing performance.
My mission is to provide exceptional care tailored to each animal's needs, ensuring they move and feel their best.
About Nikita
I am a SAVC-registered Veterinary Physiotherapist (qualifying in 2025) with a big love for animals and a passion for helping them move comfortably and live happy, active lives. I work with both small animals and horses, supporting recovery from injury or surgery as well as long-term mobility and wellbeing.
I take a gentle, evidence-based, and individualised approach to every patient, with a special soft spot for cats and horses. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important our animals are to us, and I value clear communication, kindness, and trust in every step of their care.
Outside of work, I share my home with two cats and a dog, who remind me every day just how special the human–animal bond really is. I also enjoy horse riding and continuing to develop my horsemanship skills, and when I’m not in the clinic or at the stables, you’ll usually find me painting or curled up with a good book. These creative outlets keep me grounded, curious, and bring a thoughtful, balanced energy to the care I give my patients.
